The first few weeks with Elder Douglas

Two days into their new area Kody and elder Douglas bumped into a woman named Margarita who had been baptized before Covid just before the churches shut down and she began caring for her mother. The stake president didn’t have a number to contact her and she kind of fell through the cracks. When she saw the missionaries and they stopped to talk to her she was so excited and said she loved the church. She explained where she lived and they made an appointment to visit with her the next week with the stake president. It was a small miracle. Even margarita said “it was the Design of the Lord” that they met. 

Update she went to church and even gave them a reference:)

That same evening Kody was walking with his new companion elder Douglas and asked him how he would contact someone. Just then Kody had the thought “I am just going to knock on this door right here and show him.” He knocked and a man with a beard down to his chest and a giant Mohawk answered the door. They struck up a conversation and he said as missionaries they had been sent to share a message of Jesus Christ with his family. He didn’t have time right then since they were eating dinner, but he gave them his contact information and said to come back Saturday. He was a cool guy and Kody has a good feeling about him.
